out greek brothers and bbc scum

[jenny1840]

The whole of greece is uprising against the capitalist dynasty, and the british mouthpiece that is the bbc struggles to play the event down just in case it kicks of over here. Its unbelievable we live in a police state wake up people.

An anti BBC post???

Welcome back all for nun!!

[matthew123]

Maybe BBC are worried about reactionary elements in British society who jump on any opportunity to behave like wild dogs

It's ...

An easy ( see below ) vehicle for knocking the BBC

A civil demonstration in a country renowned for them, taken over by violence & murder, of which 99.9% protesters are rightly appalled by

I heard it on "BBC London" as the event progressed, from Greek reporters on the phone at the event

How's that played down by the BBC then..?

W**F

"The whole of Greece is uprising against the capitalist dynasty"?

No. Its a traditional annual May Day march made somewhat more pointed by Greece's economic woes, with the usual anarchists jumping on the band-wagon and causing some mayhem.

Tragically, innocent people died.

The BBC were as ever, even handed. Its not the BBC's job to wave the red flag from the battlements.

And that from the mouth of a Palaeologoi.

This is the way it starts Jenny. First is a post "Just for fun" - next thing you know you will be asked to storm the gates of Downing Street, on your own, with the rest of the Brothers and Sisters sat at home, watching the TV, cheering you on, in comfort.

Er, have you been listening to any BBC radio output - especially R4 and World Service, looked at any BBC News front page or seen a BBC TV news bulletin recently? The story has been dealt with very comprehensively. As for the BBC playing it down so as not to cause a copycat reaction here, well, that's not even laughable. The coverage has included revolutionaries calling for an overthrow of the govt as well as from the rulers and from 'ordinary folk' caught up in teh middle. So, do a search and have a look at iPlayer and see what you can find.

Nero - the lady was, by the sounds of it, drunk in charge of a keyboard...

[SeanMacGabhann]

the lady is no lady if my hunch is correct

Just read any of AllForNun's posts re: BBC in the past

[jenny1840]

Certainly not drunk, but definitely high on the fumes from defacing all those Lib Dem posters all night long with my trusty militant spray can !! Vote Green today Blue Tomorrow , up the Ghurkas ..or is that workers ??

[Loz]

Was that a spray can made by a worker's co-operative (i.e. one that only works occasionally), or one made by an evil (by terribly useful) capitalist corporation?

[jenny1840]

Oh er B&Q , easy to steal plus I needed some screws for my SKY dish. I can not believe this Red Hot and Dutch election special, what ever happened to the Earth Mother tribe, now there was a militant bunch.

[Loz]

Ugh. Yoof anarchists today - don't know anything. If you want your spray paint message to last, it's Plasti-Kote or nothing.

Next you'll be saying that Doc Martin's aren't worth the bother (or is that bovver?) and any pair of big, heavy boots are fine.

Honestly. There are rules to this anarchy thing you know.

[????]

What happened to the 'greek sisters' by the way?

[charliecharlie]

they have every reason to riot...

...if this is what they have to listen to...

[womanofdulwich]

where did it all go wrong for Greek culture/civilisation? Vases, poetry, plays-studied and admired and then this Giorgos Alkaios & Friends.

[omniprescient]

WoD asks where did it all go wrong??

A somewhat contentious subject I know but after being conquered by the Turks the ancient Greeks were supplanted by their own slave immigrants (=slavs) who along with colonising Albanians now form the majority of the population.

[womanofdulwich]

Thanks omniprescient. I always wondered about that.

[jenny1840]

it did not go wrong for greek civilisation, they invented anarchy , so let the Greeks be Greek, and let the contagion spread. free bus rides soon i can almost taste it.

[Loz]

Heh, heh. jenny1840 you know as much about history and philosophy as you do about politics. The word 'anarchy' is derived from a Greek word, but they didn't invent the concept.

Next you'll be telling that the ancient Greeks got together with the Romans and invented the television.

[jenny1840]

he ho hi di hi hoopla to you too , you obviously Know less than how to type wik waky pedia into your PC.

Polemics is derived from the Greek word Polemikos; a favoured debating technique practised by Greek chatterboxes in robes. Now run off and take that silly orange triangle down off your fence, or better still paint it blue. And don't ask me to explain the polemics connection to you either.
